wells. Any approved monitoring wells would require the well to-be completed so as to isolate the aquifer(s) being <br />monitored as well as casing and cementing off other aquifers and minable coal beds encountered. <br />(o) Road maintenance - see EA <br />(p) Culverts and drainage crossings- see EA. <br />(q) Blocking reclaimed roads - see EA. <br />(r) Reclamation - see EA <br />(s) Other permits - The operator shall comply with all legal Federal, State, and County resolutions, regulations, and <br />permit requirements. <br />(t) All exploration drill holes must be capped with at least five feet of cement and plugged. with a permanent plugging <br />material that is unaffected by water or hydrocarbon gases and will prevent the migration of gases and water in the drill <br />hole under normal pressures. For exploration holes drilled deeper than stripping limits, the licensee, using cement or <br />other suitable plugging material approved by the Little Snake Field Office Manager, will plug the hole through the <br />thickness of the coal bed(s) or mineral deposit(s) and through aquifers for a distance of at least 50 feet above and 50 feet <br />below the coal bed(s) or mineral deposit(s) and aquifers or to the bottom of the drill hole. A lesser cap or plug will be <br />approved by the Little Snake Field Office Manager. Item A•illustrates the minimum requirements for plugging drill <br />holes. <br />(u) One copy of the drill hole data and related reports will be submitted to the Little Snake Field Office Manager within <br />30 days after each calendar year. The requirements for submission of drilling and abandonment information are given to <br />the licensee herewith as Item B. The licensee's location map must show access trail locations and exact hole locations <br />appropriately identified by number or letter. Submitted data must be tied to the hole number or letter designations. All <br />holes will be geophysically logged with natural gamma, density, caliper, or resistivity logs. Geophysical logs must run <br />on each hole; unless the hole conditions jeopardize the safety of the geophysical tools. <br />(v) One copy of all drill hole information, including logs, coal analyses, desorption tests, etc., and location map of <br />surveyed locations, must be submitted to BLM Colorado State Office no later than within 30 days after the calendar <br />year.. In addition, submit a description or illustration of the method used to plug each hole or completion as monitoring <br />well. <br />This license consists of the terms and conditions in Sec. 1 through 14 on five pages, of which this is the fifth page, the <br />attached FONSI, Item A which illustrates minimum requirements for plugging drill holes and abandonment information, <br />Item B which outlines the requirements for submission of drilling, and Attachment A. <br />COLORADO COAL RESOURCES, LLC <br />By: .? <br />Title: <br />Date: V- ;L& -,OF, <br />UNITED STATES OF AMERICA <br />By: <br />Title: Charlie Beecham, PE <br />Chief, Branch of Solid Minerals <br />Date:
